Encryption

Complexity:

time complexity is O(n)

space complexity is O(1)

Execution:

You do not need to create all the arrays. Just work with an offset and array slices.

Solution:
#!/usr/bin/py
from math import sqrt, floor, ceil

if __name__ == '__main__':
    s = raw_input().replace(" ", "")
    columns = int(ceil(sqrt(len(s))))
    for c in xrange(columns):
        print s[[c::columns]],
